Accident causation issues and evaluating the safety benefits of technologies
The general objective of the TRACE project (TRaffic Accident Causation in Europe) is to provide stakeholders, the suppliers, the vehicle industry and the other integrated safety programme participants with a scientific overview of the road accident causation issues in Europe. The idea is to identify, characterise and quantify the nature of risk factors, groups at risk, specific conflict driving situations and accident situations; and to estimate the safety benefits of a selection of technology-based safety functions.
